What can be done to reduce the release of hydrocarbons?
== == I'm assuming you're referring to the release of hydrocarbons from a combustion reaction (ie, a car engine). In order to prevent the release of hydrocarbons from a reaction like this and maximize efficiency, you should first understand the chemical equation of this reaction. Balanced Equation for the Combustion of Octane (hydrocarbon in gasoline): 1 Octane + 11 Oxygens --(reacts to form)--> 6 Waters + 8 Carbon Dioxides C8H12 + 11O2 ----> 6H2O + 8CO2 (Note, Oxygen is diatomic in its standard state, O2) So, in order to completely burn one molecule of Octane, we need 11 O2 molecules. In other words, the correct mix for the complete combustion of Octane is 11:1. Applying this to our cars, in order to reduce the release of hydrocarbons, the best thing we can do is ensure that our fuel to air mixtures are correct. If the emissions report on your car says you're releasing too many hydrocarbons, get the computer tuned or get a new fuel injector (or clean the carburetor) to make sure the mixture is correct. Stop burning fossil fuel and/or use catalytic converters to convert them into water.
How does CO2 extinguish fire?
first you must understand that in order to burn a fire needs fuel, heat, oxygen, some sort of reaction. carbondioxide extinguishes fire by removing the oxygen from the equation which in turn stops the reaction, causes the heat to dissipate, and then all thats left is partially burned fuel.
What is order process?
Process Order = Process an order. Order processing takes place after an order has been submitted by a Buyer. The process of submitting an order takes place in real time while the Buyer waits.
What causes chemical change of matter?
Probably the easiest thing for that is fire. With a chemical change, you change the form of something, that can not be put back. Therefore, anything getting burned up becomes ashes. You can not ashes back into whatever it was.

What happens if you use high octane fuel in a high compression engine?
It runs. High octane is what is required by high compression engines in order to prevent pinging. Unless you put the hi octane fuel in the oil filler. Then it will only briefly run before it explodes.

How do you Liberate your madness?
In order to liberate your madness you would first have to have it reigned in. Have you reigned in your madness? Madness is neither liberated nor reigned in, it is but the consequence of bad decisions. We do not liberate our madness but succumb to it. We surrender to our insanities or we work through them victoriously choosing reason over madness, rational thought over blind emotion and we approach life calmly and with a measured response. Then we fall in love, and all bets are off. We fall in love and liberate our madness...Long live love, life, liberty and the pursuit of madness!
